Can I tempt you into joining me for a picnic? Or has your time as a farmer put you off anything that might remind you of that experience?
My door is always open should you ever decide to ask me all of those questions I know you've held yourself back from asking.
How are you, Will?
And do keep in mind that it hasn't escaped my notice that you've frequently been the victim of this cities idea of fun. So, know that I won't accept an "I'm fine" as an answer.
I'd intended to do this much sooner but our fair city had entirely different plans for me. Now that things are calmer, I feel it's time that I properly introduce myself to all of you. My name is Doctor Helen Magnus and I consider it an absolute pleasure to serve as the Commander of a team of amazing men and women.
I know it isn't a lot for you, being able to fly and all, but I want to go to the carnival and ride all of the highest rides we can find. I also want to eat candyfloss and act like I'm not basically grown up. This all sounds very willful and winsome, I know. But I thought you would not mind to indulge me in the behaviour.
This is your elder, mildly smothering sister checking in with all of you. I would like to make sure that you are all doing well, eating your vegetables and not nursing wounds that no one can see because you are ever so valiant about suffering in silence.
All my love.
